    I know you have a long way to go but if you keep your head in the game you will achieve your goal. Just imagine where you will be a year from now and how great that will feel.

    Friend request sent! Don't be ashamed of yourself. It's OK to forgive yourself for where you are right now and to actually like yourself! Work towards being your biggest fan. Good luck!!!
